Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, after we did learn of the closure, of course our staff did contact the staff of the Baffin Regional Health and Social Services Board to find out what exactly was being contemplated and to be assured there were services that would be provided to those individuals who would need it. At the same time, recognizing they made that decision, confirming there is going to be services available, whether or not locally or having to be sent out. The fact remains, it is their decision. If they request some assistance in developing the new programs and what they want to provide for their service area, then certainly we would be more than willing to assist in that regard.
